About

The classic matchstick puzzle, rebuilt for your pocket. An equation is laid out in matchsticks, and it is wrong: 4 + 3 = 6. Move a single match to make it true. Easy at first — then a lot less so. WHAT'S INSIDE • 144 hand-validated levels, from gentle warm-ups to two-move brain-benders • No timers, no pressure — think as long as you like • Three stars for solving without hints. Can you collect all 432? • Daily Challenge: a new puzzle every calendar day, with a streak to keep alive • Two-stage hints: first which match to pick up, then where to put it • iPhone and iPad, fully localized in English and Russian HOW TO PLAY Tap a match to pick it up, tap an empty groove to drop it there. Make the equation true and hit Check. The "=" sign is fixed, and on "+" and "−" only the vertical stroke moves — so a plus can become a minus, and back again. FAIR RULES Your answer is never auto-checked: you confirm it yourself with the Check button. Got it wrong? Try again — attempts are unlimited. The game works offline: all 144 levels ship with the app, no account is needed, and your progress stays on your device. The game is free and ad-supported: watch a short video for a hint, and every 10 levels you complete earn you one more for free. A calm puzzle for five minutes or a whole evening. Brain exercise without the stress.
